Plant & Tree Dietas

 I am on earth to connect people and plants.  I go by the name Julie Gaia. I am a mother, mentor, seed saver, weaver, star seed, animist, land tender, and plant spirit medicine carrier. My roots are Scandinavian, Celtic, and Germanic. I LOVE teaching people about plants and how to make medicines in their own kitchens. I enjoy rattling and drumming songs of the plants so you can feel their spirits working within you. I am excited to share my love with you. My cats are medicine cats and will be attending all classes! All classes are hands on and heart based. ​Growing up on a dairy farm my mother taught me how to garden and prepare food. My father taught me to drink wild water and taste spearmint that grew by the creeks. Herbalism was formally studied with Sage Maurer at the Gaia School in Vermont, and Pam Montgomery in California.  I have always been a gardener no matter where life has taken me. For10 years I created and tended a 1 acre permaculture ( fruit, herbs, bees, mushrooms, and plants) haven in the Carolinian forest. I LOVE tending to the plants growing them for community.  ​I started my herbalism journey when in 2004 in Saskatchewan. I worked with plants to heal my pneumonia  and my lungs healed without antibiotics. Since then I have been dedicated to the plant path. ​I created the Gaia Hive to share my love of plants and create a space for living mentorships on the land. I have a Herbalism and 1:1 Coaching/Mentorship alongside group mentorships. I look forward to journeying with you. ​
